KV11, Royal tomb in Valley of the Kings, Egypt.

KV11 is a royal tomb in the Valley of the Kings that extends about 188 meters deep into limestone rock. The structure contains several corridors and chambers decorated with hieroglyphic inscriptions and wall paintings.

Setnakhte began KV11 but abandoned it after breaking into the earlier tomb of Amenmesse, KV10; he was buried in KV14. The tomb was later restarted on a shifted axis for Ramesses III, who reigned 1185–1154 BC. Floods have damaged paintings beyond the pillared hall and corridor G.

The wall paintings depict religious texts that guided the pharaoh through the afterlife according to Egyptian beliefs. You can still see these detailed scenes today, showing the spiritual journey that the burial place was meant to support.

The entrance faces north, and the pathways are structured through multiple levels on uneven surfaces. Sturdy footwear and patience when walking through the longer corridors are helpful.

The tomb is also called "Bruce's Tomb" after James Bruce, who entered it in 1768, and "Harper's Tomb" for its paintings of two blind harpers. Its first mention came from Richard Pococke in the 1730s.
